Description
It was during the Industrial Revolution that the Victorian jeweller was able to tool up for mass production. Machines formerly powered by hand or water were turning over to steam and gas and the pace and scope of jewellery production was vastly increased.
A cameo is an engraved gem with the designs carved from stones with different coloured layers so they project from the surface.
This Cameo Ring is made from lead-free pewter and comes with a cameo depicting a lady's head. The ring is supplied on an information card that is full colour on the front and has historical information on the reverse.
